Material-handling equipment used in the manufacture of grain products (MACRS-GDS 10-year property) is purchased and installed for $180,000. It is placed in service in the middle of the tax year. If it is removed just before the end of the tax year approximately 4.5 years from the date placed in service, determine the depreciation deduction during each of the tax years involved using MACRS-GDS allowances.
———————-
Repeat the previous problem if the material-handling equipment is removed just after the tax year, again using MACRS-GDS allowances.
A contractor imported a bulldozer paying P350k to the manufacturer, freight & insurance charges amounted to P18k, permits & other exp P25k. If the contractor estimates the life of the bulldozer to be 15 years with salvage value of P30k, determine the Total depreciation at the end of 11 years using Sinking fund at 10%.

Your company has purchased a large new trucktractor for over-the-road use (asset class 00:26). It has a cost basis of $185,000. With additional options costing $13,000, the cost basis for depreciation purposes is $198,000. Its MV at the end of six years is estimated as $37,000. Assume it will be depreciated under the GDS:
a. What is the cumulative depreciation through the end of year four?
b. What is the MACRS depreciation in the second year?
c. What is the BV at the end of year one?

One year ago, your company purchased a machine used in manufacturing for $110,000. The current machine is expected to produce EBITDA of $20,000 per year. The current machine is being depreciated on a straight-line basis over a useful life of 11 years, after which it will have no salvage value, so depreciation expense for the current machine is $10,000 per year. The market value today of the current machine is $50,000. You have learned that a new machine is available that offers many advantages; you can purchase it for $150,000 today. It will be depreciated on a straight-line basis over 10 years, after which it has no salvage value. You expect that the new machine will produce EBITDA (earning before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization) of $40,000 per year for the next 10 years. All other expenses of the two machines are identical.Your company’s tax…arrow_forwardA crane rental company has acquired a new heavy-duty crane for $280,000.
